at this sparkly brunch elopement

We are absolutely obsessed with brunch these days! Fancy mimosas, pretty dresses, sparkly weather, and toasting to the weekend. So when we spied this brunch themed inspiration shoot shot by Michelle Kim Photography and styled by Joanna Park, we just had to share the idea! How cute is the waffle wedding cake in this shoot? Hoorah for pouring the syrup before cutting the cake! Lady Grey most certainly loves a twist on tradition.

Speaking of, did you know Bryan and I decided to have a rehearsal brunch instead of rehearsal dinner? First off, champagne and french toast? YES. Second, we figure it’ll give us the rest of the day to hang with family and friends. We’re planning some sort of raucous field game with our bridal party that afternoon. Later that evening, we’re inviting ALL of our out-of-towners to the local brewery for burgers and beers. The plan gives us a chance to have an intimate brunch with our family and bridal party, yet still get in some extra pre-party fun with the rest of our guests before the big day!

For those of you planning a destination wedding (or those of you that can swing it) are you on board with the idea for a rehearsal brunch? We’re pretty dang excited.
